We are a multi-national, multi-lingual group from a diverse range of backgrounds and experiences. We love where we live – the Costa del Sol is a truly wonderful place that we think should be celebrated in everything that we do.

We are committed to what we do and we like to stand out. We find the best way to achieve this is to think a little, to inject a little bit of pride, personality and fun into the way we behave and reflect the feel good factor that life on the Costa del Sol brings.

VIVA is the Costa del Sol’s largest real estate. We work hard to connect the right buyer with the right vendor, taking pride and satisfaction in a job completed and a job completed as well as we know we can.

We have specialist teams committed to you, whether you’re searching for a property or looking to sell your property at the correct price, and a dedicated Customer Services Team to ensure that you are correctly supported through the entire duration of your relationship with us. Our team has over 11,000 happy customers and is about to celebrate its 12^th birthday, so we like to think we’ve got our service right.

VIVA produces and publishes the iconic HOT Properties magazine – a showcase of the very best of the property market and a celebration and promotion of all things Costa de Sol. So our expertise extends beyond real estate and into the wider business community, promoting local and international organisations through over 20,000 bi-monthly editions and anywhere up to 60,000 online downloads.

Finally, VIVA possesses an experienced in-house team of designers and marketers who regularly assist in the production of promotional materials and campaigns for our smaller business collaborators.

We’ve each and every one of us lived and worked on the Costa del Sol for many years, which is why we can honestly say that we understand both life and property here better than our competitors.

Our longevity has seen us expand during the good times and witness, survive and – crucially – learn from periods of decline. We come though each occasion with a greater understanding of what you expect from your dealings with us and we adapt to these expectations.

VIVA believes wholeheartedly that the key to success in the real estate industry is honesty, transparency and empathy. We understand the huge financial and emotional significance of a property purchase and believe in providing all the information, unbiased opinion and support necessary to ensure your satisfaction with each and every transaction.

We do not believe in anonymity and go to great lengths to operate as a physical, identifiable and accountable team - we believe that people prefer to deal with people. Our welcoming office is centrally and conspicuously located and we are keen to introduce our members of staff whenever and wherever possible across our marketing operations so that you know precisely who you are dealing with.

Whilst we are proactive and extrovert in all that we do, we do not believe in an aggressive, harassing modus operandi. Whilst we love talking to you, we categorically do not contact you by telephone until we have been explicitly requested to do so. We treat each and every communication with you with the respect you deserve.

Well, we’ve already mentioned the respect, the honesty and the fun so let’s assume we finally get to greet you in person. Regardless of your reasons for visiting us, we sit and let you do the talking first – the more we know about you the more we can help. We spare you the waffle about us – we take it you’ve already done your research, you know who we are and you’re satisfied with what you’ve heard.

If you’re looking to buy, not only do we get you up close and personal with all the fabulous properties that suit your requirements, we also help you see them in context with living on the Costa del Sol. From the important issues such as relocation, retirement, schooling and employment, through to life’s luxuries such as dining out, we are there to paint the full picture for you and to ensure that whatever decision you take it’s the right one for you.

Selling your Costa del Sol property? Great! We give you a thorough understanding of the market, advice on how best to represent your property and guidance, should you need it, on the kind of price it is likely to fetch. Should you like what you hear, we visit your property to take photos that maximise its sales potential, and within days you’re being presented to thousands of international buyers and a comprehensive network of partner agents who just might be talking to buyers where we aren’t. No other local organisation can match VIVA’s route to market and get you the exposure you need.   

For our business collaborators, a trip to VIVA HQ gets to the nitty-gritty of what you want to achieve by working with us. We listen to your objectives and, as and where necessary, advise on the best way to achieve them according to our experience. From design of artwork to the proposal of integrated marketing campaigns, we have the experience, the resource and the market presence to meet any brief, big or small.
